For me, my setup is to use Postfix as "null-client" MTA, where all outgoing mails are relayed to Gmail. This way, configuring SMTP credentials is delegated to the MTA and applications can be set up to simply specifying `/usr/sbin/sendmail` as mailer.
However, in order for system-generated mails to be sent to my real address, I have to canonicalize local `root` and `postmaster` recipients via `recipient_canonical_maps` setting.
Thanks.
